The Principality of Etrurica is a huge, genial nation, renowned for its infamous sell-swords, irreverence towards religion, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, hard-working population of 351 million Etruricans enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 9.4%.

The strong Etruric economy, worth 28.1 trillion crowns a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Trout Farming, and Book Publishing. Average income is 80,062 crowns, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

The government pours millions of crowns into rehabilitation programs annually, the "Underwear of Women in Power" issue of The Etrurica City Times is sold out, construction workers evacuate work sites after finding sharp rocks on the ground, and drug deals return to the streets as legions of undercover officers stalk the dark web. Crime is totally unknown. Etrurica's national animal is the owl, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.
